Iowa’s Second District would benefit from having Loebsack remain in Washington to fight aggressively on flood relief and recovery, to help to protect veterans and to continue looking after Iowa’s interests.

David Loebsack has demonstrated a deep-seated devotion to his state reflected in his four previous terms as congressman. As a representative of the people of Iowa, Loebsack has fought to improve the lives of everyday Iowans through practical policies that will reinforce the social infrastructure of the state.

Iowa has a tradition of sending people to Congress who are quietly but persistently devoted to improving the lives of the people in their districts rather than pursuing a personal ideological agenda. Dave Loebsack has served in that tradition, and he deserves a fifth term.

The 24-county area that now comprises Iowa’s 2nd Congressional District has been well served by mild-mannered Dave Loebsack. Given his continued history of working on behalf of constituents and bipartisanship, we can find no impetus for change.

The abuse of taxpayer dollars to cover up happenings in the Department of Health is sickening. Dr. Miller-Meeks needs to be held accountable for her involvement and serious questions need to be raised.
